Democrats are so often accused these days by the Republican pro tectionists of "making war upon our industrial development," that the charge has become a stereotyped one. It is not. confined to the Re publican protectionists,' either, for some of the Democratic converts to protection are as glib at repeating it as are the Republican protectionists from whom they learned it. What nonsense. What motive can the advocates of low tariff have in "making: war upon our indastrial development?" Are they fools, or. are they so to tally deficient in pride of country or in patriotism as this charge would imply? There are about one-half the voters in this country, and probably if. this question were divested of its parti san association, a great many more, who believe in a low tariff. Are they not as much interested in the "industrial development" of the country as other citizens? Have they no care for their own prosperity? and is not their prosper ity as dependent as that of any other citizen on the general prosperity and on our industrial development? What idiots they would be to be making war on the thine on which their own prosperity depended They must be idiots to do this, if true, or they who accuse them of it must be toousn misrepresenters or idiots themselves if they believe what they say. Whether they believe it or not the assertion is arrant nonsense, of which any man of ordinary intelligence should be ashamed. There is no man of any sense who wishes to make war on our industrial develop ment and surely there is no man in the Southwhetherhehasan average supply of sense or not, who wishes to male war on Southern industrial, de velopment; but there are millions of people in this country who object to the people being plundered under pretence of developing our industries. These millions believe, and they have the best of reasons for be lieving, that the system of protection as it is understood and practiced now and as it has been understood and practiced for a generation is a system based upon fraud and that it is a co imposition on the masses of the people for the benefit of the favored few, and they do not believe, if so much protection ever was neces sary, that it is necessary now or that the protected should have more pro tection than they bad ten or twenty, or thirty years ago when they wailed the wail of the infant and cried to be fed and cared for. These millions believe that it is time these infants outgrew their in fancy, dropped the nursing bottle, and bustled around to do something for themselves. This is not a mere matter of opinion with them, for they have the evidence furnished to support them in the belief that a high-rate, if any, protection, is not necessary to the development of our industries, for the low tariff (called sometimes free trade) period from 1846 to 1860 was a period of marvellous development both tin land and on sea. In that period manufactories sprang op all over tbe land, tb$" diversified indus tries gave well compensated employ-' ment to all who wanted to work, our commerce grew, and oar 'merchant marine increased until it became the second in the world, with every pros pect of soon becoming the first. It was the golden era of American in- flnstrial progress and prosperity. Then we were, at the end of that era, 30.000.00U ot peopie, 10 me 65.00p.00O now, more distinctively American, and more thoroughly in dependent in spirit and methods than we have ever been since. It is tree that then there were no such colossaWortunes as there are now, vfofmen were; content with the honest gains of legitimate indus try, the gains of personal effort and exertion, and not of favoring legisla tion, but there was a better distribu tion of wealth, more honest dealing, more manly independence and more content throughout the land. Protection is asked for now and claimed as a right, a "vested right' by some, not that the protected in dustnes may survive ((or no one with any sense believes that it is necessary now to their existence) but that those who operate them may gain much money by 'the tribute levied upon those who do not operate them, but must buy the things which they make. . They who are opposed to that and to the high pro tection which the protected de mand believe that they should be satisfied with reasonable gains, and that they should not insist upon be ing enriched out of tribute imposed on their fellow citizens. But this is not "making war on our industrial development." It is only insisting on fair play and honest dealing and treating all citizens, who are entitled to equal consideration under the laws, alike and justly, . showing special favors to none. MnrOE MENTION. "General" Coxey, of the "Army ot the Commonweal of Christ, seems to be filled with the conviction that an essential part of his mission in life is to deliver a speech on his pet hobbies from the steps of the Capitol building in Washington. The tena city with which he sticks to this is corroborative evidence of tbe man's crankiness. That speech, whether there be anything in it or not, would sound just as well and be just as pot ent in influencing Congress or public opinion if delivered in any of the va cant lots in Washington or from any of the street corners. It is some what remarkable that some one has not suggested to "General" Coxey the idea of having it made by proxy m the Senate ana tnus nave u mcui- i porated in the Congressional Record, Senators Quay and Dolph have held the floor of the Senate for the past three weeks delivering their serial speeches on the tariff question. Thev alternate and take the floor at their convenience, yielding, when it suits their convenience, tempora rily to some one else. To string their speeches out they incorporate all sorts ofjmatter, relevant or irrele vant, the reading of which, when they get tired, they delegate to some of their Republican colleagues. It would be a capital idea if '-Gen. Coxey would see Senator Quay and get him to incorporate his speech, parenthetically, into his own, and then expatiate on it as a frightful example of the impending effect of tariff reduction. This would not be altogether appropos, we admit, but it would be quite as much so as the bulk of the stuff that Mr. Quay is cramming into his serial "speech. If Quay would not catch on perhaps he might make the arrangement with Senators Allen-WT'effer, if they can ever get-the floor away from Dolphand Quay. If the Democrats in Congress are ai as level-headed as they should be they will -not procrastinate on the passage of a bill for the repeal of the I State bank tax, for if by any chance the Republicans were to secure a ma jority in eith er House of the next Congress that measure would be doomed. The agencies that control the Republican party are opposed to the re-establishment of State banks and are in favor of the perpetuation of the national bank system, which gives the national banks the control of the volume of currency. This sen timent is emphatically voiced by the following plank incorporated in the platform adopted by the late. Repub lican State Convention of Indiana. "We believe in currency composed of gold, silver, and paper, readily convert ible at a fixed standard of value and en- tirely under national control; and we favor the imposition ot increased tariff duties upon the imports from all foreign countries which oppose the coinage of silver upon a oasis to De determined by an international congress tor such pur pose. We denounce the avowed pur pose of the Democratic party to restore tbe era ot 'wild-cat money. They demand that the motley of the : coantry be "entirely under national control,", which means that it shall continue to be controlled .by the : same agencies that have controlled It for the past thirty yearsV'whfch has been one of the leading causes of the . enrichment of the East and of the impoverishment of the West and the South, both of which were made de pendent upon the East for the money to meet the demands of trade. State banks would destroy this monopoly and hence the men who control the Republican party and represent this monopoly are opposed to any move ment that would make the re-estab lishment of State banks possible. w -- - Col. Breckinridge, of Kentucky, has opened his campaign for a re nomination for Congress, in one of the most pitiful pleas for- votes that was ever made by mortal man. , He made much of the fact that he had made a clean breast under oath of the disreputable double life he had led for years, but it took an oath to get it out of him and then he didn't tell it until he was forced to, and even then he tried to throw the re sponsibility for his fall on his partner in guilt. He deserves no credit for tbe acknowledgment which came under compulsion when he bad to tell some of the truth at least or perjure himself. It was a- plea, how ever, coming irom tne moutn of such a captivating speaker, which will have its influence on that class of people who have not very rigid views of morality, but it will have little influence with those who have. He didn't strengthen his case by his severe scoring of the preach ers who issued that address, nor by his defiance of the newspapers, for when he defiantly threw down the gauntlet to them he aroused two powerful factors in moulding public opinion when there is any element of doubt in the public opinion formed. This defiance was in singular con trast, too, to the plaintive strain that ran through the body of his speech. Mr. Breckinridge is an extraordinary man. Unly an extraordinary mas could have gone through the ordeal ot exposure as he did and then face the people of his district as he is now doing. Capt. Nye, a pensioner ot the war of 1812, celebrated his 98th birthday at his home in Lynn. Mass.. a few days ago. He cast his first vote for Monroe and his last for Harrison. He doesn't feel so comfortable over his last. CURRENT COMMENT.

Washington Star, Ind. The South is the home of true Americanism. It is in the South tnat tne purest American blood is found.

They seem to be specially vindictive against every man who is employed at hon est labor, and every establishment that gives employment to legitimate workmen. They marched from street to street, assaulted factory after fac tory, drove men from their employ ment, did much damage to the build ings they assaulted and seemed to hold the mastery of the municipality.
